All of the smaller Zuiko lenses (the 200 mm f/4 on down) share the same
chintzy plastic construction.  If you shake one, it rattles like a child's
toy.  The aperture ring has a loose, imprecise feel to it; I'm always 
afraid I'm going to break one off.  Ditto for the spindly little
depth-of-field preview button.  At their price levels, you cannot expect
Zeiss or Leitz quality from the Zuiko lenses, but they could have been 
designed with more ruggedness in mind.

Anyone else agree or disagree? I've yet to /see/ a Zeiss/Leitz lens, let
alone use one. Since I don't have the comparison, the Zuikos I have seem
sturdy enough.
